What this FMCSA record shows

  • Next biennial MCS-150 update due: May 2027 (set by USDOT 3081155's last two digits under 49 CFR 390.19). Last update filed June 10, 2020. That is more than two years ago, so this filing may be overdue; FMCSA can deactivate a USDOT number that misses its biennial update.
  • Registered with FMCSA in December 2017, about 8 years ago, so it is past the 18-month new-entrant period.
  • Reported 78,000 fleet miles in 2019, about 39,000 miles per power unit.
  • Only 1 roadside inspection in the last 24 months, which is too few for its out-of-service rates to be statistically meaningful.
  • 86 other USDOT registrations list Liverpool, PA as their physical address.

Is Martin General Builders Legitimate? Safety & Fraud Check

A quick, plain-English check of whether this carrier looks safe and legitimate to hire — based on public government records. It's a screening aid, not a guarantee.

Our read on this carrier
Worth a Closer Look
A few things are worth checking before you hire this carrier or give them a load.
✓ Looks fine ! Worth checking × A real concern
Shares owners with 2 shut-down carriers
The same person or people also run one or more carriers that are no longer active. This is sometimes a sign of a company re-registering to leave a bad record behind — verify who you're really dealing with.
Not on any U.S. sanctions list
This carrier's name doesn't appear on the U.S. Treasury sanctions blocklist — clear to work with on that basis.
Licensed and authorized to operate
The FMCSA lists this carrier as having active operating authority right now.
No history of a revoked license
This carrier's operating authority has not been revoked and re-registered.

These checks use public U.S. government records — the carrier's license status, safety-inspection and crash history, ownership links, and the U.S. Treasury sanctions list — refreshed automatically. A flag doesn't prove wrongdoing; it's a prompt to verify before you do business.
